Como vs Sassuolo — Tale of the Tape

| 14 | Points | 8 |

Como have bounced back impressively with convincing victories over Fiorentina (3-1) and Manchester United (4-1) in the UEFA Champions League within the past week.
The midweek triumph over the English side further enhanced Cesc Fabregas’ reputation, with Como now boasting an impressive home record across all competitions this season.
The hosts have recorded three wins and one draw in their last four home games and are brimming with confidence.
Avoiding defeat against Sassuolo would see them reach 15 points from their opening eight Serie A matches for the first time in the club’s history.
However, their defence remains a concern, having kept just one clean sheet in competitive matches this season, meaning their attack may once again need to deliver.
Sassuolo, meanwhile, have managed only one win in their last five matches after suffering a disappointing 4-2 defeat to Frosinone last week.
Their games have regularly produced goals at both ends, making them the only Serie A side to have scored and conceded in every league fixture this season.
Their away form has also been questionable, having struggled to turn their chances into victories away from home.
They are still without an away league win this campaign, with three draws and seven defeats.
Sassuolo will need a much-improved performance to end that disappointing streak against an in-form Como side.
